In which I work too damned close to Mi-T-Mart.

frappuccinoI just went next door to the convenience store — it’s entirely too close, not even thirty paces from the front door of my building — and I bought a Mocha Frappuccino and a package of Hostess Ding Dongs.

Then I consumed them at my desk in a diabetic-inducing frenzy, getting little waxy chocolate crumbs all over my gel wrist-rest and keyboard.

It wasn’t pretty.

And now my tummy hurts.

    Of course your tummy hurts. Corn syrup is BAD! (I’m lecturing while eating a 92% dark chocolate square)

    I loooooove dark chocolate… -m

    Hmmmm…. do I feel a “cramp” post coming on??

    LOL! Good question! Naw, it’s coming on O time, not bleed-like-a-stuck-goddamned-pig time. -m

    i can’t say i’ve had ding dongs. i’ve rang them, but never had them. if they’re anything like swiss rolls then i can understand why your tummy would hurt.

    i’m not sure i like the new format. then again, i’m lazy. but then i nearly always leave some sort of comment which means that i have to click the mouse anyway.

    92% dark chocolate is a tad to bitter for my taste. i have a bar that is 86% and that’s on the very edge of being just a bit too bitter. I’ve been chipping away at this bar since just before easter.

    Same ingredients as swiss rolls: cake, creme filling, dipped in chocolate. You don’t like the new layout? I love it! Change is good! -m

    If we really weren’t supposed to eat it, then why would God have given it to us? Not pointing the blame or anything, but I think you know Who is at fault here.

    Love the layout, Momma Mush!

    Good point! Damn that creator, anyway. Love you, baby boy. -m

    ding dongs rock! have you ever froze ’em for a bit? YUM. the waxy-goodness becomes a shell for the gooey insides.

    AND! I have no idea why I think you’d like this, but I have an old camera I found whilst cleaning nooks and crannies, it’s yours if you want? It’s brown, and the shutter piece folds out like an accordian?

    We gots do lunch soon!

    I’m into frozen Twinkies, myself. And yes, I’ll take it! What is it? Is there a brand name on it, a model? -m

    Oh man that sucks!! I do that from time to time too. The snacks are just too good.

    Tell me about it! *rolleyes* -m

  7. Cootera says:

    Cassie’s right: frozen ding dongs are the BOMB!!! It’s one of those ‘foods’ that I eat about once a year, and damn they’re goooood.

    On a healthier note, frozen red flame grapes are also the bomb, but in a different way. -m

  8. Brad says:

    I loves me some ding dongs… Wait a minute. I suspect we’re not talking about the same thing here.

    *hehe* -m

  9. phx says:

    Mmmmmust have frappuccino…. *drool*

    Never done ding dongs. Are those shaped like Os?

    They’re shaped like hockey pucks. Yummy, chocolate-cakey, creme-filled, chocolate-dipped hockey pucks. -m

    Now I want one, too.

    OK, I give up…I can’t find the link to Rants! Where is it??!!

    I like coming to this page first to read your kick ass daily posts, then click on the link to Rants…but I can’t find the link since you switched to the new look. I don’t want to put in a new bookmark or have to type into the addy bar either. I’m lazy that way.

    Good point. It’s under Forums I Frequent. -m
